The pressure's off; staff attorney positions offer lawyers a niche and a life
Article Abstract:
Staff attorneys,. also called permanent or non-partnership track associates, can offer flexible hours and reduced pressure, and an increased number of attorneys are choosing this type of life. Staff attorney positions can appeal to attorneys who have worked at small firms or attended mid-level law schools but want to bolster their resumes with big-firm experience. Many staff attorneys, however, complain that their work is more routine and their pay lower than that given regular associates.
